IIRC, that one has a Miata windshield and frame.....

Didn't look at it as whining....bragging maybe Hanns, I can't wait to line up next to you!!!

Pete, Unfortunately there is a very pervasive NIMBYism attitude on the left(ist) Coast. As the population has exploded into the desert and back 40s, many of the tracks have had to close down because of public complaints. From my house, it is at least 2 hours in any direction to a full 1/4 track. Irwindale (1/8 where Hanns goes is about 45 minutes). You lucky dog have 2 tracks so close.

I also did the LT1 (since pulled it for something a tad more exciting). It is a great little package, but with the LS1s getting cheaper and hop up parts getting more plentiful, and with mount kits available now, I cannot see any reason to go with anything else (from an OEM transplant point of view). It is hands down a better package. But, if you can find a 94-96 LT1 for a good price, pick it up. The wiring is very easy (Don't waste your money on an aftermarket harness). Tim

They usually bolt to the floor or tunnel. This is what I am talking about:

Why not try to find a used cell phone holder, you know the kind that mounts to a flexible stalk, for incar cellular hands free application. You would need to fabricate a new 'head' for it for your device to clip into, but then you would have the 'flexibilty' (no pun intended) to repostion it at any time.... Tim

Very cool!!! Nice job!! Do you have a solution for side windows and windshield yet (or will the original windshield still fit?)

Call some of your local rim repair places and see if it can be done cheaply. Tim

Pleasure is all mine

Wow....guess they were having a 2 for 1 sale, huh! Congratulations!!

Come on, Dan....Man Up dude!

Just enough to knock down the shine and give the primer some bite surface.

Get ready for some serious elbow grease!! If your car still has the original paint (IE, no subsequent coats), and the body is straight, then do not take it down to bare metal. If the filler was done properly, then don't worry about it. Get a DA sander (air driven), and sone sanding blocks and a flexible rubber sanding block and a bunch of 320 grit paper. (you will need a good size compressor for the DA if you don't want to stop every 10 minutes for the compressor to catch up. My 5hp (peak) 20 gal really had a tough time. I now have a 60 gal, 7hp (peak, 5hp run) which has no problem. Clean the car well with degreaser (from the paint store). Then get sanding. When it is all sanded, shoot it with a catalyzed primer surfacer. Sand with 400 grit prior to shooting color. (BTW, I am right in the middle of repainting the 71 Cheyenne 20 in the driveway, so this is fresh in my mind). Tim

My God, Hanns......I have NEVER ever been accused of being "flamboyant" before.......

U got the last one

Zero caps available.

Received. Thanks.

Bryan, That is correct. Joel, received. Thanks. Only 1 cap left.

Prices are 20 for every item. I actually lose about 60c on the transfers (my cost is $19, plus CA sales tax). I know that is expensive for a sticker, but the work involved in cutting such an intricate design with 3 colors is what makes it pricey. If I ordered 100s of them at a time the price would go down quite a bit, but....... I could have cheaped out on them, but since they will be representing HZ, I did it right. So: Shirts: $20 Caps: $20 Transfers: $20 Shipping: $5 flat rate for USPS Priority.

I still have some shirts, a couple of stone color caps and some vinyl transfers left. Not many, but no more will be produced.......

How is your little monster LT1 coming, Dave? Have the other non-related 'issues' settled down any? Finish that thing so I can have a BBQ in its honor!
